A systematic analysis of nucleon-nucleon scattering amplitudes is available up to a laboratory energy of 3 GeV in case of the pp system and up to 1.2 GeV for pn. At higher energies there is only incomplete experimental information on pp elastic scattering, whereas data for the pn system are very scarce. We apply the spin-dependent Glauber theory to calculate spin observables of pd elastic scattering at 3-50 GeV/c using pp amplitudes available in the literature and parametrized within the Regge formalism. The calculated vector A p y , A d y and tensor Axx, Ayy analyzing powers and the spin-correlation coefficients Cy,y, Cx,x, Cyy,y, Cxx,y can be measured at SPD NICA and, thus, will provide a test of the used pN amplitudes.

The integrated cross section e σ for a special type of double polarized proton-deuteron scattering constitutes a null test for time-invariance violating but P-parity conserving effects. Using Glauber theory for the pd elastic scattering and different types of phenomenological T-odd P-even NN-interactions we show that the contribution of the lowest mass meson exchange, i.e. the ρ-meson, to the null-test signal e σ vanishes. Variation of the cross section e σ due to strong hadronic and Coulomb interaction is studied and its energy dependence is calculated in the GeV region.
